Never mind a taxi for Terry, get a bus and take the rest of the shower...
No characters. No one prepared for the scrap. No motivation...No £ucking chance of surviving.

I'm a big backer of McCann; I always think that standing by your managers is important as we see too many clubs, us included, just turn over managers when a difficult patch is hit.

Today, however, was unforgivable. There was no sign of any fight, which is exactly what you need in a situation like this. These players are better than this, they are, but there's clearly a problem. Even before kick off, the heads were down and I imagine the home games will feel like away games, which won't help. The young players came on and actually made a difference, but the fortunes of the club in such a vital time should not fall on the shoulders of the young. The players need a hard look at themselves, but they don't look like they're playing for the manager, they haven't been for some time.

I'm sorry Grant, but we need something else for the last 9 games.

Give it to Andy Dawson for the last 9 games, at least he's a City icon who can work with these lads, he'd at least put a bit of fight in the boys. If we're going to go down, we need to go down swinging. Even if it's windmilling in, with ****ing keys and a pint glass in one eye.
 
I've said it before, surely the manager has hit the failure part of his contract whereby the club can release him with a minimum payoff. If not, what sort of businessmen are they? How does McCann's record compare to previously failed managers?
 
The big difference was they had Sam Clucas ...we had Grant 'Sam' clueless!!! Absolute disgrace and an embarrassment to the 513 that made the journey.

This,yes.
 
I loved Andy as a player, but he couldn't win a corner with Scunny. Out of his depth in L1, so what makes you think he'll do it in the Chump with the players at his disposal.

Oh I'm not suggesting it as a long term option, but with 9 games left and bugger all options left, it might be better than the cheap options the Allams will no doubt go for.

Well Terry, what did you make of that one? "We were slow coming out of the blocks and they got a wee bit of momentum - but I thought we gave a good account of ourselves and took our opportunity well - but it wasn't to be......what will all the injuries it has been difficult...but onwards to the next game where the boys will be asked for more fight and urgency about their play. Tactically I think we lacked a wee bit of guile, so we will have to assess that for the next game...I am not worried at all..I only look upwards". Thanks Terry

I mean, desperate times call for desperate measures. If he didn't dislike the Allams so much, you'd be getting Deano on the touchline staff, in the changing rooms to give them hell.

I think Grant might be too nice, I just can't see him bollocking anybody. It works in the classroom, but you need a Malcolm Tucker in this situation. Somebody who is going to skin people alive for not putting in 100%.
 
Good evening all you pussycats thought I would just call in and congratulate you on today’s result
<party>
